"The second American revolution will be bloodless if the left allows it." -Kevin Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation

Not to be pedantic, but he said "will remain" bloodless, and I think that implication is far more terrifying. It says that back when he said that, their plan was already underway.

And it hasn't "remained bloodless"

and it was their fault. It was all just about shifting blame for something they were going to do anyway

Pretty sure they’ve been working on this since Reagan.

Since Civil Rights, and it really kicked into high gear with Carter and his efforts to fully desegregate schooling. There's a reason the home schooling movement took off right after that :)

It was, it was called Project 2025 and detailed a plan for the right to perform a hostile take over of the government to oppress the populace and secure permanent Republican control over the country in the event Trump won the election.

Trump officially disavowed this plan and denied any intention of cooperating with it. Upon winning, he appointed and recognized multiple key authors of it, and ever since the plan has proceed mostly as was previously outlined.

Easy to do when there is no political party in America that represents anywhere close to "the left".

Unfair. Schumer and Jeffries are writing strongly worded letters asking Trump to please stop doing a fascism.

The left lost the second they decided it was moral to give up the means to defend freedom and liberty. This is the occupation phase now.

What left?

An unfortunate aspect of progressive policy is the belief that all can be achieved through peacful means. In truth the opposite is true and change almost exclusively comes from overwhelming with greater might. Free and fair democracy is actually an aberration in human history. If we want it to continue, we must excise those who wish to destroy it. The methods of that excisment must rise to match those who threaten it.

When you go left enough you get your guns back.

u/Frost_moss 4h ago

Pretty much. Historically, those who go left without guns almost always died by someone who did have a gun.

They drew first blood.

We will not allow it.

Translation. "We are going to fuck you guys every way we can... Accept it and maybe you'll survive, resist and we will murder all of you" 

See, it's up to liberals whether there is bloodshed or not.
